Musashi Wind Katana(s)

QUESTION: Hi, I'm one of the owner's of the $179 Musashi Wind katana and i absolutley love it! Purchased it after reading your review as a matter of fact. Thanks!

But anyway I now see that Musashi has another version of the Wind Katana thats about $500, can be found here and I'm considering it. Question: is this sword worth $300+ more than its original version in your opinion? Thanks!

ANSWER: Personally, the Wind Katana itself is better bang for the buck. These new swords are nice (especially the blades), but in terms of performance there isn't much difference (Indeed, a monosteel sword is more reliable than a Differentially hardened one).

Hope this helps.
